Post #16: Obama: "Fight the Power"

So this one again draws from a Shepard Fairey image (I spelled his name correctly this time).  Obama has been under siege from the moment he set foot in office three years ago.  His efforts to be conciliatory with republicans have been scoffed at by the GOP, so I employ a Fiona Apple quote (paraphrased actually) "Why waste Unconditional Love on people who don't believe in the stuff."  I also call on Chuck D's (of Public Enemy) "Fight the Power" from Spike's Do the Right Thing.  And of course Mitch McConnell's gesture of good will and infinite sincerity "The single most important thing we want to achieve is to make sure Presidet Obama is a one-term president."

Thanks for looking and reading,
